Arribes del Duero: Una Confluencia de Agua, Vino y Tradición

Explorando las Riquezas Culturales y Naturales de la Frontera de España con Portugal
Anidado en el indómito oeste de Zamora y Salamanca, el Parque Natural Arribes del Duero es un santuario de serenidad donde la naturaleza y la tradición se entrelazan.

Este paisaje único, esculpido en granito en profundos cañones, alberga una rica diversidad de fauna, incluyendo la icónica cigüeña negra y el águila real, mientras que la presencia humana se manifiesta en prácticas pastorales y agrícolas ancestrales.

La Ruta del Vino de Arribes ofrece un viaje tentador por este terreno escarpado, uniendo 37 municipios en una celebración de la viticultura.

Partiendo de Fermoselle, conocido como 'El Pueblo de las Mil Bodegas', los visitantes pueden explorar la elegancia rústica de Bodegas Pastrana y maravillarse con la innovadora combinación de emprendimiento y tradición en Bodega Frontío, establecida por el economista danés convertido en vinicultor Thyge Benned Jensen.

Los viñedos del parque, a menudo pequeños y antiguos, dominan los espectaculares cañones fluviales de los ríos Duero y Águeda, creando vistas impresionantes que suman al atractivo de la región.

Junto al vino, las aceitunas son un testimonio del rico tapiz agrícola de la región, como se muestra en el Museo del Aceite de Oliva de Fermoselle, donde la marca local DourOliva ofrece una muestra de oro líquido.

Enriqueciendo aún más este viaje está la Estación Biológica Internacional, una estación biológica internacional en Portugal que ofrece un crucero ambiental imperdible para observar de cerca la vibrante ecología del parque.

Coordinados por David de Salvador y Susana G.

Bonnail, estos cruceros ofrecen conocimientos científicos y oportunidades para la observación de la fauna.

La gastronomía local, con sus excelentes materias primas, promete un deleite culinario.

Desde la cocina inventiva de Mar Marcos en el Restaurante España hasta los manjares artesanales de la panadería de Mayte Seijas en Villardiegua de la Ribera, el paisaje gastronómico es tan diverso como delicioso.

Al cruzar a Salamanca, la ciudad medieval de San Felices de los Gallegos invita con sus relatos de antaño, desentrañados por el guía local Daniel Cangas.

Su encanto rústico es emulado por el hotel rural Mesa del Conde, donde el patrimonio se encuentra con la hospitalidad.

Este recorrido por los Arribes del Duero no es solo un viaje a través del espacio, sino un viaje a través de capas de cultura y naturaleza, ofreciendo profundas visiones de una relación simbiótica que ha prosperado durante siglos.
